Either it'll be a joint marketing venture with Accor around their Planet 21 program and trigger when QFF points post from the new QF/ALL tie-up, or it might be a Qantas Hotels thing with Tripadvisor GreenLeaders properties. Qantas Hotels already integrates Tripadvisor ratings into the engine, but doesn't seem to have any way to filter down on eco friendly properties at present.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Sustainable Lifestyle - Offset your Home and Car; purchase solar panels - $50-100 per person based on table below</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Choose Sustainable - Purchase wine from an eco vineyard; offset Qantas Wine or Qantas Store delivery - I thought Qantas Wine used AusPost... and MyPost Business is <a href="https://auspost.com.au/about-us/corporate-responsibility/our-environment/carbon-neutral-parcel-delivery" target="_blank">already carbon neutral</a><img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f644.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll Eyes    :rolleyes:"  data-smilie="11"data-shortname=":rolleyes:" /> But worst case the offset is $1-2 max if already buying alcohol.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Reduce Your Impact - Take our impact quiz to learn how - how much do you value your time...</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Give Back - Contribute to a sustainability organisation or project - I would guess this to be a 1000 point or $10 donation to Qantas Future Planet</li> </ul>So possibly less than $100 if going for the cheapest qualification route.The <a href="https://www.qantasnewsroom.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/211126-QFF-Green-tier-fact-sheet.pdf" target="_blank">fact sheet</a> gives an option for offsetting a household without a car, so you should still be able to meet this category.[ATTACH=full]265954[/ATTACH]I've just discovered these offsets are already available for purchase in the Qantas Store under 'Gift cards': <a href="https://store.qantas.com/au/offset-your-home-and-car" target="_blank">Offset Your Home and Car</a>Pricing varies by state, but it's amusing that ACT costs more than NSW when ACT is already running on <a href="https://www.environment.act.gov.au/energy/cleaner-energy" target="_blank">100% renewable electricity</a>.My partner and I both chase SC, I wonder if they will count a single 2 person + 1 car offset payment against two FF accounts in the same household, or if we are expected to purchase our own individually. It seems this category is going to be an honour system anyway, although if you hold Qantas car insurance it might be difficult to argue that you don't own a car <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="🤣" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f923.png" title="Rolling on the floor laughing    :rofl:" data-shortname=":rofl:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" />Qantas Wine has a small selection of food & non-alcoholic options. <a href="https://wine.qantas.com/p/Olsson%27s-Red-Gum-Smoked-Sea-Salt/DSOLSSREDGUM_V" target="_blank">$20 fancy salt perhaps</a>? Guess it depends how many SC are on the table.</blockquote>
